Guide to Sending and Receiving International Transfers from Aspire's Alternative FX Partner

Follow this guide to send and receive international transfers from Aspire's Alternative FX Partner.

Updated over a week ago

You can send and receive international transfers outside the normal in-app flow, which is handy for sending large amounts while retaining low fees. We do this with our partner, BrdgePay Pte. Ltd., which offers one of the most competitive FX rates in the market for large amounts.

How it works

You will be guided by our support staff to conduct transactions using this method. In general, the process is as follows:

  • To send international transfer: Aspire client funds the BrdgePay account in Singapore, and then BrdgePay forwards the funds to the beneficiary’s account.

  • To receive international transfer: The sender will fund the Brdgepay account in Singapore, and then BrdgePay forwards the funds to the Aspire client’s account.

We also collaborate with other partners that work in a similar process. Depending on the nature of your business and the payment request, we will recommend other partners if they are deemed more advantageous.

Notes:

  • The transfers sent through our alternative payment partners will not state your business name as the sender's name. However, you can inform us to indicate your business name in the reference for outgoing transfers.

  • Transfers processed through our alternative partners typically take 3-5 business days to reach the beneficiary.

Getting Started

If you are interested in using this alternative, you can fill up the Transfer Request Form, and we will be in touch with you shortly after.

Please note that our partners will review your payment requests before proceeding to make sure it falls within their Acceptable User Policy.
